How is the pinion yoke attached to the driveshaft?
The ring gear is mounted to the differential case and the pinion gear is attached to the pinion yoke. The driveshaft U-joint may attach directly to the pinion yoke or the pinion yoke may be the flange type and bolt to a U-joint yoke on the driveshaft.
How does a slip yoke work on a transmission?
The slip yoke has internal splines that mesh with the transmission/transfer case output shaft splines, and the barrel (the external surface) of the yoke rides on a bushing in the transmission/transfer case housing. This enables it to slide in and out of the housing as the axle moves.
What kind of yokes do Dorman driveshafts use?
Dorman’s Driveshaft Slip Yokes are nickel coated for high corrosion resistance and long-lasting durability. Replacement eliminates clunking noise while driving. This restoration grade driveshaft component is a…
Which is the U-joint on a driveshaft?
The driveshaft U-joint may attach directly to the pinion yoke or the pinion yoke may be the flange type and bolt to a U-joint yoke on the driveshaft. The cross and roller U-joint, sometimes called a cardan joint, is the type of U-joint most often used with driveshafts and yokes.
How does a two piece transmission yoke work?
Since the Transmission Yoke slips inside the rear transmission housing, disconnection of the rear u-joint and removal of the driveshaft is necessary. This Two-Piece Transmission Yoke allows the driveshaft to remain in place (in the vehicle) with the yoke in the transmission.
What kind of driveshaft yoke do I Need?
Driveshaft Flange yokes in 1310, 1330, 1344, 1350, 1355, 1410, 1415, 1480, 1485, 1555, 3R S44 and Double Cardan CV style for Ford, Chevrolet, GMC, Jeep, Buick, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Cadillac, Plymouth, Chrysler and Dodge cars and light trucks 2 wheel and 4 wheel drive.
How is a driveshaft coupled to a transmission shaft?
Instead of a slip yoke, a fixed flange or yoke is bolted to the output shaft of the transmission and the driveshaft is coupled to the flange through universal or constant velocity joints. Several options exist to satisfy various coupling requirements.
What are the U-joints on strange transmission yokes?
The transmission yokes are CNC machined to assure concentricity and balance for ideal driveshaft operation. While the 1350 u-joints provide enough strength to handle most demanding of applications, Strange also offers a variety of yokes with1480 u-joints for the ultimate in driveline strength and dependability.
